Mulberries are one of the easiest trees you can grow. Whether you’re looking for something that packs ornamental value, hoping to attract wild birds or planning to grow a reliable fruit.
In Chinese mythology, mulberries are associated with the Tree of Life, linking the earth and heaven. They also have a deep spiritual meaning in Japan.
There are over 150 species of mulberries, but only a few are found in commercial cultivation. -White mulberry (Morus alba) -Red mulberry (Morus rubra) -Illinois Everbearing Mulberry -Black mulberry (Morus nigra)
The best way to propagate a mulberry tree is using semi-hardwood cuttings. You can use this method in late winter or early spring when the tree is waking up from dormancy and resuming its active growth season.
